Question

A stone resting on ground has a gravitational force of 20N acting on it.what is the weight of stone?what is the mass

Answer 1

Answer:

weight is known as amount of gravitational force acting on an object so weight is 20 Newton

mass is measure of matter contained in a substance is 2kg

Explanation:

weight (W) = mass(m) X acceleration due to gravity (g)

or

W=mg

20=mX10 (since g=10m/s²)

m=20/10

m=2

mass(m)= 2kilograms
